Do you play the games on facebook.com? I have many friends that play, FarmVille, Bejeweled Blitz and other games on facebook. They sometimes send invitations for me to join these games as well. I have not played the games. I just use facebook to connect with people. What about you? Do you like the games?

I play a few of the games (farmville, farm pals, farm town, mafia wars, etc) and it was the worst thing I have ever done as I find them far too addictive. I find myself spending far too much time playing them when I could be on this site earning more money for myself.

Addictive. This is what I think would happen if I started playing. I would be there all day and never get anything else done.

I am such a game addict... I do Mafia Wars, Farmville and Farm Town. I've tried a couple others, but have gotten bored with them quickly. The main reason I'm replying 3 weeks out on this discussion is because those stupid games in Facebook are taking up all my time! I actually do have a good time "competing" with my family and friends on the farms and stuff, we have a great time with it!

hahaha - I know! It does take a lot of time, but I enjoy it a lot and that's my main goal on the internet - FUN! Making money is just a plus here at myLot :)

When I first heard about games I didn't realize that you could play "with" people, that is was interactive. That is good that you enjoy it so much. If I'd get addicted to the games I would have time for mylot or other money making sites either.

Ghost - Heart Breaking Temptress Ghost on Ghost Trappers
I play Mousehunt, Ghost Trappers and Fish Wrangler exclusively all other games I already removed because I love playing passive games.

I can tell I'm out of the loop. I haven't even heard of these games. Thanks for your response.

I use facebook mainly to play games. I always play Mafia Wars and Restaurant City. Sometimes I visit my farm in Farm town.

My husband does one of the farm games. Not sure if it is Farmtown or Farmville. I wonder how those are different.

I don't have the time to play either. I just like to check on my friends' status and see what is going on with everyone.

Yes sometime I do like to play games on facebook and orkut. Some of the games are only available in these portals. We can not find them anywhere else. Like there is a game in facebook called as typing maniac. This game I could not find anywhere else on internet. Whenever I log onto facebook I usually play this game.

Typing maniac sounds like it might actually help improve typing skills. Maybe some of the games have benefits.

I use it for both keeping up with friends and family, and games. I am a farm town addict, as well as farmville. I also play mafia wars, sorority life, farkle, bejeweled blitz, school of magic, rock you pets, and several more. These are the main ones though. If you want I can send a friend request and we can pm email addresses and add each other for the games on facebook. I will send a friend request and you can let me know if you are interested.

Yep I play a lot of games on facebook like Restaurant City, Pet Society, Walk The Drunk, Mafia Wars, Geo Challenge, Texas Hold em Poker etc. But my primary use of facebook is to communicate with my friends especially old classmates. Since we lost contact with each other, I found some of my friends using facebook and use it to catch up with each other and play games together.

Just in the past week or two I've found some friends from my high school. It's been 30 years since graduation and I had lost contact with everyone. It has been really cool to reconnect with these friends.

I spend a lot of time playing MMOs, but those kind of games kind of bore me. Of course, there are a few that I do enjoy...like Bookworm. Honestly, though, I feel like it clutters up my facebook with all those invitations and game scores popping up.

I agree with you about the invitations. I get so many then I wonder if my friends think I'm rude for not accepting.

The games are a very good way to team up with your friends and family as a whole. However, individually i enjoy taking the different surveys- it's fun to know what results you get! And afterwards, you can post it on your wall for everyone to see.

I have seen alot of my friends doing surveys also and posting the results. I've not done those either. I'm starting to sound very boring I suppose.
